Vengeance for all': How Iran's Lego videos won narrative war against Trump
"The animated video rapidly shuttles between a range of people who've been victims of the United States government, from Black Americans in chains to survivors of Iraq's notorious Abu Ghraib prison complex."
"In memory of victims of Iran Air flight 655, says another, referring to the passenger aircraft brought down by US missiles in 1988, killing all 290 people on board."
"The video ends with giant statues of US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu collapsing, and a line in bold, white and all caps: ONE VENGEANCE FOR ALL."
Iranian creators are producing high-quality, low-cost viral videos that highlight the United States' history of global wars and abuses. These videos utilize Lego animations to depict various victims of US aggression, including Black Americans and survivors of the Abu Ghraib prison. The animations feature messages on missiles honoring victims of specific incidents, culminating in the collapse of statues of US and Israeli leaders. These videos serve to bolster Tehran's narrative and have gained significant viewership on social media platforms.
